μήτε δὲ ἀρέσκεσθαι τοῖς πραχθεῖσιν, αἰχμαλώτους τε τοὺς περιόντας ἀποδοῦναι, χρήματά τε ὅσα ἡρπάγη ἀποτῖσαι, φίλῳ τε ἀντὶ ἐχθροῦ χρῆσθαι καὶ τὴν εἰρήνην ὅρκοις καὶ σπονδαῖς βεβαιῶσαι. ὁ δὲ Ἀρτάβανος ταῦτά τε ἀναγνοὺς καὶ διδαχθεὶς ὑπὸ τῶν πρέσβεων περὶ τῆς Ἀντωνίνου ἀναιρέσεως, αὐτάρκη τιμωρίαν τὸν παρασπονδήσαντα δεδωκέναι νομίζων, τοῦ τε στρατοῦ αὑτῷ τετρυχωμένου, ἀγαπῶν τε τοὺς αἰχμαλώτους καὶ τὰ χρήματα ἀναιμωτὶ ἀπολαβεῖν, σπεισάμενος εἰρήνην πρὸς τὸν Μακρῖνον ἐς τὰ ἑαυτοῦ ἐπανέρχεται. ὃ δὲ τόν στρατὸν ἀπαλλάξας τῆς ἐν Μεσοποταμίᾳ διατριβῆς ἐς τὴν Ἀντιόχειαν ἠπείγετο.
